I checked the irex logs and nothing was coming in over the period of time where I wasn't getting messages. Once I send an echomail and then poll the hub, irex brings stuff in. > Does this happen with any other nets you're in? Nope, only micronet. > I'd check your fido logs and see if you're receiving mail but not > tossing it. Nope, not receiving it until I send out an echomail, when this is happening. It takes about a day after stuff is coming in before it stops. > ... Mechanicalise something idiosyncratic > --- MultiMail/Win v0.52 > * Origin: realitycheckBBS.org -- information is power.
